homebuilt tig cooler?

any make a home built tig cooler? i see the plans for sale on ebay was wondering how well they work! i have a miller 330a/pb with a weldcraft 20 serie torch it machine can with a benard cooler cart tank is rusted very bad and pump is shot a replacement pump is $250 i seen someone use a back yard fount pump what do you think

Here is a link to an article in the Fabricator Magazine on the one I built the parts http://www.thefabricator.com/ArcWeld...le.cfm?ID=1275 list and pictures are on the Miller "Ask Andy" forum, and also on the Hobart "Weld Talk" projects forum, if you want to search for it. I would not recommend a fountian pump for a cooler build, you can find procon pumps on ebay a lot cheaper than $250, I bought a used one with a new 120V fractional motor for $45 from some guy.
